Deschanel at the 2012 PaleyFest

American actress Zooey Deschanel made her film debut in the 1999 comedy feature Mumford.[1] She went on to gain public attention by co-starring in the comedy-drama Almost Famous (2000), the independent drama Manic (2001) opposite Joseph Gordon-Levitt,[2] and the comedy-drama The Good Girl (2002).[3] She landed her first major role as an 18-year-old virgin in the romantic drama All the Real Girls (2003),[3] for which she was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for Best Female Lead.[4] Deschanel's biggest commercial success, as of 2017, came with the Christmas-fantasy film Elf (also in 2003), which grossed over $220 million worldwide.[5]

In 2005, Deschanel played Tricia McMillan in Garth Jennings' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, an adaption of the media franchise of the same name.[6] She followed it by being featured in a series of comedy films, including Winter Passing (2005), Failure to Launch (2006), The Go-Getter (2007), and Peyton Reed's Yes Man (2008). Deschanel played a radiant dream girl in the independent romantic drama (500) Days of Summer (2009), also opposite Gordon-Levitt, for which she garnered a nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture at the 14th Satellite Awards.[7] She voiced Bridget in the animated family comedy Trolls (2016), which earned her an Annie nomination for Voice Acting in a Feature Production.[8]

Deschanel made her television debut in the sitcom series Veronica's Closet in 1998. She later starred as DG in the 2007 miniseries Tin Man (2007), a science fiction re-imagining of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The miniseries averaged more than 6.3 million viewers during its first night, making it the top rated cable miniseries of 2007.[9] She voiced Mary Spuckler in three episodes of The Simpsons since debuting on the 2008 episode "Apocalypse Cow", and guest-starred with her sister Emily in a 2009 Christmas episode of the Fox crime procedural drama Bones. In 2011, she landed a starting role in the Fox sitcom series New Girl. For her portrayal as a goofy school teacher named Jessica Day, she has received three Golden Globe nominations for Best Actress – Television Series Musical or Comedy,[10] a Primetime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series,[11] and won a Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Actress in a Comedy Series.[12]
